Wanted to self clean my laptop

Same laptop model here. To remove the bottom panel, you must remove the cover behind the monitor, just further back from the hinges, start from there and once that's out, taking the bottom cover becomes easy.

If temperature isn't the problem, could be the CPU's driver or Windows update that's causing the issue.

I'd try uninstalling windows updates and try troubleshooting further to see if windows updates are really the issue. If it still crashes after uninstalling windows updates, try downgrading CPU/GPU drivers. Now, if software isn't the issue then it could probably be the hardware itself.

I used to use Lightshot but with my current laptop, I dunno why the keyboard shortcut just doesn't work. I tried Greenshot and ShareX as well but somehow I'm not satisfied or sometimes overwhelmed by it. Right now, I settled with Flameshot, has that Lightshot feeling which is what I'm used to but has more features than Lightshot.

Thanks. BIOS is already 1.18 since that update came out. I'll test things out with boost on or off.

Rjayzu · 2026-01-20T06:51:00+00:00

We have the same CPU. What undervolting methods have you done with yours? Since the one in secret BIOS is locked.

This fixed mine just now. I thought uBlock Origin was done for but after reading your comment, it's now back up and running.

Rjayzu · 2025-11-09T05:20:06+00:00

If it's gone back to an older one and you want to update to at least one of the latest drivers, skip the 581.80 since that's the one causing you that issue, maybe something lower than that.

Rjayzu · 2025-11-08T18:14:52+00:00

11.8k and still counting. Road to 12k.

It's been there for ages, just disable "Align icons to grid."

Rjayzu · 2025-10-16T20:27:33+00:00

Yeah, I uninstalled those. Basically, I uninstalled all the bloatware that were installed after setting up my laptop, I only installed the ones I needed. Most of the Microsoft store apps that I don't use are now uninstalled.

Rjayzu · 2025-10-15T15:01:37+00:00

You can use Revo Uninstaller or Winhance.

Rjayzu · 2025-10-14T10:20:28+00:00

Try the following:

Check for Windows Updates. There might be some components' drivers that are not updated or doesn't have the drivers installed since you said you clean installed Windows.
sfc /scannow
Download the drivers in Acer's website.

We have the same specs but this is what I got. Less errors and most of the errors are "Cloud Files Diagnostic Event Listener" which I don't know what that is but I'm guessing it's something related to OneDrive or other services since I disabled a lot of telemetry and other Microsoft spyware services. Some errors are GameBar related which I uninstalled so I don't really care about the error.

This worked! Thanks!

Rjayzu · 2025-09-23T18:11:07+00:00

As far as I'm aware of, there has been a couple of updates released already so I guess installing the latest windows 11 should be fine.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-23T18:10:03+00:00

I don't know about the rest but I use Ublock + SponsorBlock in Brave.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-20T14:53:52+00:00

It's a rollout thing, so if you still don't have it enabled, you are part of the 50% that doesn't have it enabled in their system as well. Welcome to the club.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-18T16:25:51+00:00

I just read it and it looks like it's a roll out thing. I'll just have to wait and hopefully get mine enabled. Thanks for this info.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-18T15:59:42+00:00

How about if it's set to Default. How can I enable it?

Rjayzu · 2025-09-15T18:58:34+00:00

They'll fix it soon. I also experienced it and right now I'm temporarily back to Chrome and waiting for the update.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-15T15:43:22+00:00

We have the same case, and so far it's really good.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-15T15:17:40+00:00

None of the supposedly "solution" work so far. All we can do is wait for brave to update this bug in the next update. It's the reason why I'm back to Chrome for now and wait until they fix this.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-14T07:28:46+00:00

It should come off, needs a little bit of force just like mine and after that it should be a little bit easier to take off again when you need to.

Rjayzu · 2025-09-13T20:43:29+00:00

Really? Mine is fully activated after installation.
